Is this firm really acting like a "startup"? I'd say they're just acting "different".

* 100+ partners at $3million in revenue each? Not exactly bootstrapping (though it sounds like they used to).

* Working late hours? I highly doubt that's any different than any other group of business litigation lawyers.

* Agressive approach? Again, it seems as if they are known as more aggressive since they only do litigation.

* T-shirts, jeans, Starbucks in the office? Sure, that's a startup stereotype now.

I would argue that they're a highly focused firm that's a bit relaxed in their actual office environment, and a bit more collaborative than their peers. I don't think that's exactly acting like a start-up.
